30 Days of Thanks 2013 Day 20: Operation: Endurance by Christi Snow | Smitten by Reading

Hi Y’all! It is November and I am bringing back the Month of Thanks. I had so much fun doing this last year that I thought I would recycle the program again this year. Each day I will highlight one book from 2013 that really stuck with me and one blogger (and their awesomeness) that I am thankful for! These are not in any particular order and by no means is 30 going to cover everyone (or book) that I love.

First Thought when Finished : Oh my that made me cry big crocodile tears while out in public!

What I Loved: Solid, Smart, and Suspenseful is what I am going to use to describe the Suspense side of the story for Operation Endurance. I was on the edge and even though I suspected who it was early on, I was still devastated to be right.

What I Like best about Smitten with Reading: Christi is another blogger (author) that I know in person. We just click!

What I *heart* about Smitten with Reading: I am always flabbergasted at how much Christi can read. I swear her and Kelly (Reading the Paranormal & tomorrow’s spotlight) make me just go “Really?!?!?” (in a good way) at how many books they finish in a year. I think they both hit my reading goal about June LOL. Christi is also one of the creators of Top Off Tuesday, she loves wine and beer, and is just as delightful in person as online!

Why you should follow Smitten with Reading: Did I mention how much she reads? Plus she really does cover the contemporary spectrum better than anyone else I know!

Felicia is just your average gal from Texas that loves Audiobooks and Libraries with a passion! She can wine them, dine them, and love them forever. Her eclectic reading tastes include: Cozy Mysteries, Thrillers, Swoon-Worthy Romance of all kinds, Zombies, Urban Fantasy, Historical Fiction, and the occasional YA read.

During her non-reading time you can find her hanging with her rescue furr children named after book characters: Lizzie a beautiful cattle dog mix (Pound Pup), Cinder a beautiful Shep/Pitt mix (Pound Pup), and Minerva a beautiful Shep/Pitt mix (Foster Fail). Gathering with friends and family, attending conventions, watching movies/tv shows, rooting for the 49rs, and crocheting.

OMG, how did I miss this yesterday? Thank you, Felicia!!! hehe…so yes, I’m a bit obsessed by books…and maybe drinking….but NEVER in a bad way. Really, can there be a bad way when the two things (we won’t discuss what happens when Felicia is in charge of the alcohol, but the next morning was painful)….

Love all you girls. And if you’re ever in West Texas, call me up and we’ll definitely go hang out. OR if you ever see me at a con somewhere (I’ll be the quiet one in the corner reading) come grab me and I’ll buy you a drink! smiles…

The series is really good and heart-string pulling. I would say with this one though you really want to start with book 1 because by the time you get to this one (especially this one) you have a connection that just digs in!

Just a Note:

I am not a professional reviewer. In fact all I am is an opinionated reader. I give my POV about the books I choose to read. Most books I love (that happens when you choose what you read) but occasionally one lets me down. It is never personal (towards the author, publishing house, or editor)–it is just my personal reading experience. So please read all my reviews with that in mind.

Thanks-

Felicia the Geeky Blogger

About Donna

I'm a tax preparer who loves to read. I've been reading historical romance and history for a very long time. Thanks to my Mom for handing down her Victoria Holt, Mary Stuart, et al when I was in junior high and my Dad who bought me any book I wanted. He believed along with the James Bond, I'd read the classics too. But the biggest thanks goes to my elementary school librarian who made sure we all had something we'd enjoy to read. For me, she picked Queen Elizabeth & the Spanish Armada and Mary, Queen of Scots. Hooked me for life!

I never knew reviews were so important until I was "dragged" onto Facebook and found many friends who feel like I do about books. Now, I post my reviews on Goodreads, Amazon, Barnes& Noble and sometimes NetGalley. With thanks to Felicia, I get to post my reviews on the Geeky Blogger.
